Why not help preserve justice? It won't take up much of your time. Let's say you needed a witness and the witness chose to not speak up. Do the right thing and participate. You'll feel better about doing the right thing at the end of the day. |

nothing will happen to you if you just tell them what happened.

well you will get in trouble for not helping, i think they call it obstruction of justice, but hopefully all the insurance companies will take care of it and they wont bother you at all |

just cooperate and your employer will understand.. you would want a witness to help you or your family if it came to that..
and yes they can force you to attend court hearings by sending you a subpeano, and if you fail to show up you can be charged with contempt of court. |

If you do not cooperate they will probably issue an arrest warrant and toss your butt in jail. At that point you won't have to worry about your work because you will probably get fired. |

Well you will be questioned because you are a witness to the accident. I would suggest you cooperate with the police otherwise you may very well be charged with obstructing justice or public mischief. |

You already did get involved, and thank you! You did the right thing! If it goes to court, which is doubtful. then you will be expected to tell what you saw and that's all. There shouldn't be any hassle at your work, since most bosses understand if you have to spend a few hours in court |

Thank You for calling 911. Don't look at this as "Being Bothered", Look at this as an experiance of doing the right thing.
PLUS, you have to cooperate. It might only be a few questions and answers on a statement. That may be as far as it goes. |

Think it this way, would you want that person to help you if you were in that situation. Or what if the person that did this kills someone someday. |
